Tesla vs Tata Motors: Elon Musk's USD 56 bn salary more than TaMo revenue

Navdeep Singh Navdeep Singh | 06-19 00:20

Tesla's revenue and adjusted core profit were also milestones in Musk's USD 56 billion stock options package, with the highest revenue target being USD 175 billion cumulatively in four consecutive fiscal quarters.
Tesla shareholders recently approved CEO Elon Musk's USD 56 billion remuneration package for the second time at a crucial annual shareholder meeting, following a prior invalidation by a Delaware court earlier this year. This eye-popping sum alone is more than the total revenue of Tata Motors, which sits at USD 52.44 billion (INR 4.38 lakh crore).

Musk's compensation package not only outstrips Tata Motors but also surpasses the total revenues of other prominent Indian entities, including HPCL (USD 52.09 billion), SBI (USD 40.35 billion), Rajesh Exports (USD 37.48 billion), and TCS (USD 29.04 billion).

However, it falls short of giants like Reliance Industries (RIL) at USD 108.62 billion, Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) at USD 96.10 billion, Indian Oil (IOC) at USD 93.84 billion, and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) at USD 77.54 billion.

Analysts and investors speculate that approving Musk's remuneration package will mitigate the risk of him leaving the electric vehicle maker.

Tesla's revenue and adjusted core profit were also milestones in Musk's USD 56 billion stock options package, with the highest revenue target being USD 175 billion cumulatively in four consecutive fiscal quarters.

However, despite the vote of confidence from the Tesla board, the company faces challenges as its sales have been declining over recent quarters. Total revenues have fallen by 8.7% to USD 21,301 million compared to USD 23,329 million in the same quarter the previous year, according to data collected from the first quarter results of 2024.

Year-to-date, Tesla's shares have declined nearly 25%, with a 32% plunge in the last year.

In the United States, top-paid CEOs include Alphabet's Sundar Pichai with compensation of approximately USD 226 million in 2022, followed by Broadcom's Hock Tan with USD 161.83 million, and Apple's Tim Cook with USD 63.21 million.
